TECHNICAL FIELD
The present disclosure relates to a cleaning and cooling arrangements.
BACKGROUND
In the present world, solar energy is playing an important role in fulfilling energy demands due to the shortage of conventional energy sources like coal, petroleum, natural gases etc. In addition, the solar energy is emission less source of energy. The solar energy is mainly utilized by photovoltaic/solar panels for harnessing the heat energy of the sun. The efficiency of the solar panels depends upon the amount of sunlight absorbed by the solar panels. But, the sunlight absorption capability of the solar panels gets significantly reduced due to accumulation of dust and other foreign particles on the surface of the solar panel.
Currently, cleaning of the solar panels is achieved by conventional cleaning ways involving manual cleaning. The manual cleaning requires more manpower and thus adds on to the overall cost of the energy production. Further, cleaning in the daytime decreases the absorption time for the solar panels. Further, the manual cleaning systems utilize water for cleaning the solar panels and incurs a water wastage. In addition, the temperature of the solar panels gets significantly increased by absorbing heat throughout the day. This reduces the efficiency of the solar panels.
Therefore, in light of the aforementioned drawbacks and other inherent in the existing arts, there is a need for a system for effective cleaning and cooling of the solar panel with minimum human intervention. There is also a need for a system for effective cleaning and cooling of the solar panel with minimum resource wastage.

Example embodiments of the present disclosure are described below, as illustrated in various drawings in which like reference numerals refer to the same parts throughout the different drawings.
The present disclosure relates to performing at least one action on a solar panel. Further, the action may include, but not limited to, sprinkling a fluid on the solar panel and blowing air on the solar panel.
Figure 1 illustrates a system [100] for performing at least one action on a solar panel. The system [100] comprises a reservoir [102], a pump unit [104], at least one sprinkler [106], a fan unit [108], at least one air vent [110], a power source [114], a plurality of sensors [112] and a control unit [120].
The system [100] may be configured on a stationary unit, a mobile unit or a combination of both stationary unit and the mobile unit. In an event the system [100] is the stationary unit, the solar panel or an array of solar panels is moved across the system [100]. However in an event the system [100] is the mobile unit,

the solar panel or the array of solar panels is kept stationary, and the system [100] moves across the solar panel or the array of solar panels.
The reservoir [102] may be a storage tank configured to store fluid. The fluid may be a water or any other cooling/cleaning fluid. The reservoir [102] is also configured to supply the fluid to the pump unit [104].
The pump unit [104] is configured to increase the pressure of the fluid. The fluid with increased pressure is termed herein as pressurized fluid. The pump unit [104] may be a conventional pump such as a centrifugal pump. The pump unit [104] is further configured to supply pressurized fluid to the at least one sprinkler [106] via a duct or a passage.
The at least one sprinkler [106] is configured to sprinkle the pressurized fluid on the surface of the solar panel. The at least one sprinkler [106] breaks the pressurized fluid drops into smaller droplets, and distributes the pressurized fluid over an area of the surface. The distributed pressurized fluid creates an impact force on the surface of the solar panel and thus, cleans and cools the surface of the solar panel. The at least one sprinkler [106] may include, but not limited to, a plain orifice spray nozzle, a spiral spray nozzle, a pressure swirl spray nozzle, or any spray nozzle as may be obvious to a skilled person. The spiral design generally produces a small fluid droplet size and is clog resistant due to the large free passage. In an embodiment, the at least one sprinkler [106] may be a spiral spray nozzle with full cone spray pattern. Further, the at least one sprinkler [106] may be adjusted to spray at different angles.
The fan unit [108] is configured to suck air from ambient atmosphere and increase the pressure of the air. The fan unit [108] may further be configured to supply the pressurized air towards the at least one air vent [110] via a duct or a passage. The fan unit [108] may be a conventional fan used in the state of the art.

The at least one air vent [110] is an air outlet configured to blow the pressurized air on the solar panel for cleaning and cooling purposes. The at least one air vent [110] may also be capable of blowing air at different angles.
The system [100] further comprises a plurality of sensors [112] (temperature sensor [116], proximity sensor [118]) for sensing the temperature of the solar panels and proximity of the solar panels from the system. In an embodiment, the proximity is sensed in terms of gap between the solar panels.
The plurality of sensors [112] comprises the at least one temperature sensor [116] to sense the temperature data of the solar panel. The at least one temperature sensor [116] may be configured on at least one of the at least one sprinkler [106] and the at least one air vent [110]. The at least one temperature sensor [116] may be a conventionally known temperature sensor in the state of the art.
The plurality of sensors [112] also comprises at least one proximity sensor [118] to sense the proximity data of the solar panel. The at least one proximity sensor [118] may be configured on at least one of the at least one sprinkler [106] and the at least one air vent [110]. The at least one proximity sensor [118] may be a conventionally known proximity sensor in the state of the art. In an event of single solar panel, the proximity sensor may sense the proximity data of the solar panel positioned up-front. However, in an event of the array of solar panels, the proximity sensor may also sense the gap in-between the two solar panels along with the proximity data of the solar panel positioned up-front.
The at least one temperature sensor [116] and the at least one proximity sensor [118] are further configured to transmit the temperature data and the proximity data to the control unit [120] at every instant or periodically.
Further, the pump unit [104], the fan unit [108], the at least one temperature sensor [116], the at least one proximity sensor [118], and the control unit [120] is

powered using the power source [114]. The power source [114] may comprise an AC current source, a DC current source, a battery source, a dynamo or any other source as may be obvious to a skilled person. In one embodiment, the power source [114] comprises a dynamo run by a tractor shaft.
Furthermore, the control unit [120] may be a processor or micro-processor configured to receive the temperature data form the at least one temperature sensor [116] and the proximity data from the at least one proximity sensor [118]. The control unit [120] also comprises a storage unit to store the temperature data and the proximity data. The control unit [120] may store the temperature data and the proximity data at a cloud storage. The control unit [120] is also configured to store a pre-determined proximity data and a pre-determined temperature data. The pre-determined proximity data and the pre-determined temperature data is stored in the control unit [120] by a user. The control unit [120] is also configured to activate or deactivate the the pump unit [104] and the fan unit [108] based on the comparison of the temperature data, the proximity data with the pre-determined temperature data and the pre-determined proximity data, correspondingly. The activating of the pump unit [104] and the fan unit [108] leads to the at least one action, wherein the action may blowing the pressurized air on the solar panel or sprinkling the pressurized fluid on the solar panel.
In an event the temperature data is greater than the pre-defined temperature data and the proximity data is lesser than the pre-defined proximity data, the at least one of the pump unit [104] and the fan unit [108] may be activated to supply the pressurized fluid and the pressurized air to the at least one sprinkler [106] and the at least one air vent [110], correspondingly. As used herein, the pre-defined temperature data denotes the optimum working condition for the solar panel. Similarly, the pre-defined proximity data denotes the maximum proximity gap required to spray the pressurized fluid and the pressurized air.

The event of the temperature data being greater than the pre-defined temperature data refers that the temperature of the solar panel is more than the optimum working temperature and therefore requires cooling and cleaning. Similarly, the event of the proximity data is lesser than the pre-defined proximity data refers that the solar panel is in optimum vicinity to for spraying the pressurized fluid and the pressurized air.
Similarly, in an event the temperature data is lesser than the pre-defined temperature data and the proximity data is greater than the pre-defined proximity data, the at least one of the pump unit [104] and the fan unit [108] may be de-activated to stop the supply the pressurized fluid and the pressurized air to the at least one sprinkler [106] and the at least one air vent [110], correspondingly.
The event of the temperature data being lesser than the pre-defined temperature data refers that the temperature of the solar panel has reached the optimum working temperature. Similarly, the event of the proximity data is greater than the pre-defined proximity data refers that the solar panel far away or absent from the at least one sprinkler [106] and the at least one air vent [110]. In an embodiment, wherein the gap in-between the two solar panel of the array of the solar panels is more than the pre-defined proximity data, the at least one of the pump unit [104] and the fan unit [108] may be de-activated to stop the supply the pressurized fluid and the pressurized air.
Further, in the event of activation of the pump unit [104] and the fan unit [108], the spray of the pressurized air and the pressurized fluid may take place in any order. In another embodiment, the pressurized air and the pressurized fluid may be sprayed simultaneously.
Furthermore, the activating or de-activating the pump unit [104] and the fan unit [108] may be achieved by the control unit [120] by controlling the power supply

from the power source [114]. Further, the control unit [120] may also be configured to vary the rate of spraying/blowing the pressurized fluid and the pressurized air by controlling the pump unit [104] and the fan unit [108].
Furthermore, the system [100] may be mounted on a vehicle and can be transported easily and thus making the cleaning and cooling process easy, effective and mobile. The system [100] may prevent water wastage by 66% as compared to conventional cleaning and cooling systems. The system [100] also saves 50% of time consumed in cleaning and cooling as compared to conventional cleaning and cooling systems. Lastly, the system [100] may save 80% manpower in cleaning and cooling as compared to conventional cleaning and cooling systems.
Furthermore, Fig. 2 illustrates a method [200] for performing at least one action. The method [200] starts at step [201]. At step [202], the temperature data of a solar panel is sensed by the at least one temperature sensor [116] and the proximity data is sensed by the at least one proximity sensor [118]. This step leads to step [204]. At step [204], the control unit [120] receives the temperature data and the proximity data from the at least one temperature sensor [116] and the at least one proximity sensor [118], correspondingly. This step leads to step [206]. At step [206], the control unit [120] compares the temperature data and the proximity data with the pre-defined temperature data and the pre-defined proximity data, correspondingly.
In an event, the temperature data is greater than the pre-defined temperature data and the proximity data is lesser than the pre-defined proximity data, this leads to step [208]. At step [208], the control unit [120] activates the at least one of the fan unit [108] and pump unit [104] to supply a pressurized air to at least one air vent [110] and to supply a pressurized fluid to at least one sprinkler [106], correspondingly.

However, in an event, the temperature data is lesser than the pre-defined temperature data and the proximity data is greater than the pre-defined proximity data, this leads to step [210]. At step [210], the control unit [120] de¬activates the at least one of the fan unit [108] and pump unit [104] to stop the supply of the pressurized air to at least one air vent [110] and supply of a pressurized fluid to at least one sprinkler [106], correspondingly. Finally, the method [200] ends at step [212].
Therefore, the present disclosure provides an effective and efficient system for performing at least one action on the solar panel.
